Noah,
I already answered your question through Jim Harter at Covalent. You cannot pass information from an input filter to the access checker, because the input filter runs during the handler phase, and the access_checker function runs long before that. You will need to do your access checking as a part of the input filter, and deny access within the access checker. As I told you, the HTTP_IN filter has a couple of examples of how to do this. While it is true that there isn't much information available for writing input filters, the best source currently available is the filters used in Apache itself.
